Satan had a historically unique opportunity to destroy the Messianic line during the time of Queen Esther. Had he been able to destroy all the Jews through Haman, Satan could have prevented Jesus Christ from appearing!

God boldly gave the people of Israel the plan by which Messiah would appear, and He even gave the precise timetable! In Daniel 9:24-27, which God gave to Daniel approximately 553 BC, God foretold that, from the going forth of the Decree to rebuild Jerusalem, to the coming of Messiah, was to be 69 Jewish Weeks of Years, or 483 Jewish years. Since the Decree of Artaxerxes was issued in 456 BC, anyone could have counted forward to see when Jesus Christ would be declared as the Jewish Messiah and when He would die.

This period of 483 Jewish years is 173,880 days. Counting forward from the Decree of Artaxerxes, we come to Palm Sunday, 33 A.D., when the multitude declared that Jesus was the Jewish Messiah. Just 5 days later, Jesus was unjustly tried and crucified, in complete and absolute fulfillment of Daniel 9:24-27. Now you know why Jesus said, on several occasions during His ministry, " My time is not yet come" [John 7:6, 8, 30; 2:4]

If God gave His precise timetable to the people of Israel, through the Prophet Daniel, in 553 BC, you can bet your bottom dollar that Satan was determined to prevent Jesus from appearing on this time schedule. God foretold that Messiah would come directly from King David. [Isaiah 9:2-7; Jeremiah 33:15-17, 20-22; Ezekiel 34:23-24; 37:24-27; Hosea 3:5; Amos 9:11; Zechariah 12:6-10]. Therefore, you could expect that Satan would try to attack the Davidic lineage in the intervening 483 years. Satan did just exactly that, with his greatest attack coming during the reign of Queen Esther.

Esther is one of the key figures in the entire Bible. When she became Queen of the Gentile King of Persia, her nation, Israel, lay on the garbage heap of history. God had brought Babylon into Israel, beginning in 606 BC, to physically punish her for her national sins that had extended over 800 years. The Jews were in a hostile land, ruled over by a people of great cruelty, the kind of cruelty exhibited by the late Iranian Ayatollah Khomeni. Satan prepared his plan of annihilation of the Jews through the Secretary of State to the King, Haman. This plan of annihilation started with all the Jews in Persia, and would then expand outward to include every Jew in the entire world. If ever Satan had a golden opportunity to destroy the Messianic line, this was the time. If Satan could cut off the Davidic lineage, he could prevent Messiah from appearing in fulfillment of God's prophecies.

Therefore, God's honor and prestige were on the line. This supernatural battle had to have been the most intense in the history of the world up until that time. God had chosen to use fulfilled prophecy as one of His main stamps of validity. Thus, we see God telling us, "Seek out of the book of the Lord and read; not one of these details of prophecy shall fail, none shall want and lack her mate in fulfillment. For the mouth of the Lord has commanded and His Spirit has gathered them." [Isaiah 34:16; Parallel Bible, KJV/Amplified Commentary].

These bold promises from God must have stimulated Satan even more in his determination to annihilate the Jews to prevent God's prophecies concerning the first appearance of Messiah from coming to pass.

But, before Satan could begin his evil plan, God placed a very special lady, Esther, into a position where she could act according to God's Plan, aided by her Godly uncle, Mordecai. Once Esther's actions had preserved Israel, God's countdown to the birth and ministry of Messiah, Jesus Christ, could continue. Just 28 years later, God stimulated the Gentile Persian King, Artaxerxes, to issue his decree to rebuild Jerusalem, thus beginning God's 70 Weeks of Years prophecy in Daniel 9:24-27.

Esther's action comes at a most important time in the supernatural struggle between Satan and Jesus Christ. The most famous line in this story is uttered by Mordecai, when Esther is wavering between acting on behalf of her nation or taking the safe path of keeping her mouth shut while Haman was destroying the Jews. Mordecai said, " Who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this?" [Esther 4:14]

Of course, you know the rest of the story. Queen Esther risked her life to appear to her husband, the Persian King, without being summoned. The King received Esther kindly, allowing Esther to put into action the plan that her Uncle Mordecai had conceived. The King realized that Haman had tricked him into signing the decree by which Haman was going to annihilate all the Jews in the entire world. The King ordered that Haman be hung on the very gallows he had erected to begin the annihilation of the Jews.

God's uninterrupted Davidic lineage remained intact. Thus, both Matthew and Luke were able to systematically recite the lineage of Abraham to David to Jesus Christ. This unbroken lineage was one of the major fulfillments of prophecy that God used to convince Jews that Jesus was their Messiah! At the very End of the Age, Antichrist will recite a very similar line of lineage unbroken back to King David, so that the Orthodox Jewish priests will be deceived into thinking he is their Messiah, for whom the Jews are awaiting for very anxiously.

To show you how the bold action by Queen Esther came at just the right moment in history, let us give you the chronological line of the Messiah Time Line. You will see how Satan's actions through Haman came at a very critical juncture in Israel's history. Just 28 years later, King Artaxerxes issued his decree to rebuild Jerusalem, thus beginning God's countdown to Messiah.

To defeat God, and prevent God's prophecies of Messiah from coming from the Davidic Lineage, Satan attempted to use Haman to completely break the Messianic line. Thus, he could have prevented Jesus from ever appearing. But God is Sovereign. Moving just ahead of Satan, God placed Esther in Satan's path, defeating him totally.

This brief study demonstrates several important principles:

1. God is Sovereign -- Totally in control at all times
2. Satan is no match for God
3. God, working through the weakest servant, is more than a match for a person controlled by Satan. This principle holds true even though the person through whom God is working feels totally weak, ineffective, and scared to death. Certainly, Esther felt precisely this way, and yet God worked mightily through her to defeat the King's right-hand man, Haman, through whom Satan was working.
4. God's Eternity and Omniscience is on working powerfully here. God is acting to prevent the destruction of His line of Messiah from Satan's all-out attack. God knew exactly what Satan was planning on doing, He knew when Satan was going to attack, and He knew Satan was going to use Haman. God was not caught off guard.
5. God works through evil situations to further His goals, and He ultimately destroys Satan's plan along with the men who were attempting to carry out the evil plan.

Truly, the End of the Age is upon us. Are you spiritually ready? Is your family? Are you adequately protecting your loved ones? This is the reason for this ministry, to enable you to first understand the peril facing you, and then help you develop strategies to warn and protect your loved ones. Once you have been thoroughly trained, you can also use your knowledge as a means to open the door of discussion with an unsaved person. I have been able to use it many times, and have seen people come to Jesus Christ as a result. These perilous times are also a time when we can reach many souls for Jesus Christ, making an eternal difference.

If you have accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, but have been very lukewarm in your spiritual walk with Him, you need to immediately ask Him for forgiveness and for renewal. He will instantly forgive you, and fill your heart with the joy of the Holy Spirit. Then, you need to begin a daily walk of prayer and personal Bible Study.

If you have never accepted Jesus Christ as Savior, but have come to realize His reality and the approaching End of the Age, and want to accept His FREE Gift of Eternal Life, you can also do so now, in the privacy of your home. Once you accept Him as Savior, you are spiritually Born Again, and are as assured of Heaven as if you were already there. Then, you can rest assured that the Kingdom of Antichrist will not touch you spiritually. If you would like to become Born Again, turn to our Salvation Page now.

We hope you have been blessed by this ministry, which seeks to educate and warn people, so that they can see the coming New World Order -- Kingdom of Antichrist -- in their daily news.

Finally, we would love to hear from you.
